The Hip-hop class will consist of two separate parts The first part of class we will be doing grooving, warm-ups and exercises. This is to loosen up our muscles and strengthen them in order to be able to perform the Hip-hop steps better. And then the second part of the class we will be learning cool moves; The wave, moonwalk, airswipes,threading, popping & locking, robot, animation, top rocks, 6-step, around the world, stalls & freezes, etc. and choreography. We will also visit some videos of hip-hop dance in class.
We will also learn about the history of Hip-hop and the culture. The kids will learn how to implement Hip-hop in their walk with Jesus and to use it to minister to others.
